Your Pathway to Success a nice plug on her wonderful blog, Mosaic is Art. She also is one of the few to realize this book was largely autobiographical. Read her post here.

Irit has two blogs, and they're some of the best ones on art that I've read. On her Mosaic is Art blog she shares her own insights into the artworks she highlights, and her personal blog takes you behind the scenes into her own work process. You'll find she has a lovely sense of humor!

And if you're curious about her work, this is Irit's website. Definitely check it out! I'm pleased to say I showed 3 of her wonderful mosaics in Breakout!
